So I have an outdoor plant in it's 12th week of growth, she seems to be doing well - nice and tall and pistils growing from multiple colas. Unfortunately it turns out I will be leaving somewhere in about 1 month. So I was hoping to somehow induce flowering early in the outdoors. Right now the days are a little under 14 hours a day. This may sound ridiculous, but Im struggling for ideas here...
I was thinking about using a tall box to place over her and block out the last 2 hours of sunlight - to make the plant think the days are shorter. I know this would limit the CO2 supply... but I was thinking I could maybe make some small holes in the box to give the plant some ventilation, while still cutting out a great deal of sunlight. If anyone has ever heard of or used this technique, please let me know how it works! Or if you could project how you think it might work, that would help too. Thanks guys!
